Electrostatic buildup can create sparksa nd
ignit efuel vapors.T here isarisk of fire and
explosion.
Always touc hthe vehicle body beforeo pening
the fuel filler flap or touching the fuel pump
nozzle. An yexisting electrostatic buildup is
thereby discharged.
!Do not use diesel to refuel vehicles with a
gasolinee ngine. Do not switc honthe ignition
if you accidentally refuel with the wrongf uel.
Otherwise, the fuel will enter the fuel system. Even small amount softhe wrongf uel could
result in damage to the fuel syste mand the
engine. Notify aqualified specialis tworkshop
and have the fuel tan kand fuel lines drained
completely.
!Overfilling the fuel tan kcould damage the
fuel system.
!Take care not to spill any fuel on painted
surfaces. You could otherwise damage the
paintwork.
!Use afilter when adding fuel from afuel can.
The fuel lines and/or the fuel injection system
could otherwise be blocked by particles from
the fuel can. Do not get int
othe vehicle again during the refu-
eling process. Otherwise, electrostatic charge
could build up again.
If you overfill the fuel tank, fuel could spray out
when the fuel pump nozzle is removed.
